I am flowing emails from Yahoo Mail into Thunderbird 128.13 on a Mac M3 in macOS Tahoe 26.1. Suddenly some Thunderbird folder names are greyed out and italicized, plus I seem to be missing emails in those folders. I've tried correcting it but cannot find anything that makes a difference, so where are my questions: Why does that happen? How can I correct it? Where are my missing emails? Thanks in advance! ~ Heath

Thunderbird can not receive emails but it can send them. Password is correct.

  ( Login to server pop.verizon.net with username ... Failed
    Connection timed out)

Account Settings -> Server Settings:

   The certificate for pop.verizon.net:995 appears to be valid.
   When viewing the certificate it is out of date.
   No option to add an exception here or under Manage Certificates

On another user on the computer Thunderbird is working.

Thanks

Hej, jestem okropna z komputerami. Zmieniałam w pracy komputer i zalogowałam się na Thunderbird. Nie miałam tam maili - ponoć lokalny mail?

Poprosiłam informatyka o przerzucenie maili. Niestety większość albo wylądowała w koszu, albo ich nie mam (mam maile z 2021, a nie mam z 2024?).

Stare konto było 'usuniete' z poprzedniego komputera. Utraciłam tam wszystkie maile z posegregowanych folderów. Zostały tylko te w odebranych i wysłanych, nawet po ponownym logowaniu.

Nasz informatyk kazał zmienić w konfiguracji serwera, katalog docelowy. Co zrobiłam. Nadal ich nie ma, po odświeżeniu.

Może jestem głupia, ale proszę o pomoc. Co robię nie tak...? Sprawa trochę pilna - potrzebuję tych maili.

Dziękuję!

Trying to report a bug in Thunderbird:

Subject: Missing message preview/snippet in Thunderbird 115 (Supernova)

Hello Thunderbird team,

I’ve been using Thunderbird 115 (Supernova) and noticed that the message list no longer shows a preview/snippet of the email body. In earlier versions, this was available as the “Message Preview Text” column, but in Supernova neither Table View nor Cards View currently display snippets.

For many users (myself included), having a one‑line preview of the message body is an important part of quickly scanning the inbox — it’s a feature Outlook and other clients provide, and it makes Thunderbird much more efficient to use.

Could you confirm if this feature is planned to return in a future release? If so, is there an estimated timeline? Even a rough idea would help us understand whether to wait for it or look for alternatives.

Thank you for all your work on Thunderbird — it’s a great project, and I appreciate the effort that goes into keeping it modern and usable.

Hello, i created new folders in different mail accounts. but they are not visible. i checked the subscribe menu . the folders are visible and checked there. but still not visible if i left the menu. searching for the mail shows a result and the subfolder location. i can open the mail.

but still no folder visible thanks in advance for helping ideas Tom

PS the red arrow points to the new folders

hi all

have somehow got an imap and a pop3 [version of the same acct] acct on my main pc , but they are are the same TB acct if that makes sense. suddenly ive lost all msg's in inbox.

have opened Tb in troublshoot mode but no help. i also did an "impoort" which was no help

i have 2 inboxs with associated folders [which i don't want]. i was tackleling a problem with this acct in another thread and appreciate peoples
input there, but it was not completely resolved

i suspect i need to change both accts to either pop2 or imap , preferably the one where data is kept on a server so acct is syced with my laptop pc

any help much appreciated. thanx

update: just now i did a second "Import", this was successful and recoverd my inbox msg's, but id still like some help getting back to normal, thanks

Hi, Microsoft recently changed the way Shared folders in OneDrive 365 business are managed. I'm referring in particular to folders shared by other users within my organization. Now you have to create a sort of link to the folder which appears in My files. Previously I used the odrive client to sync all my cloud accounts (OneDrive, Dropbox and Google Drive). Because of the changes, those shared folders cannot be synced by odrive anymore and I had to switch to the official Microsoft OneDrive client. With that, I can now sync the folders on my local drive but I cannot attach files from those folders to a Thunderbird message. While the folders appears as a link in the root OneDrive folder when I browse it with Explorer, when I click on the folder I see the files are local copies synced in my filesystem. Yet, Thunderbird cannot access them and gives the attached following Send Message Error: Sending of the message failed. There was an error attaching kickoff_novembre2025_6slide_V2.pptx. Please check that you have access to the file. Obviously I could make a local copy and attach that, but it is not convenient at all. Any fixes available?

Hi, I want to print a list of selected events in the calendar, is that possible? Or, is there an extension that does it? And in the dream scenario I could export the selected lines to Excel.

Thunderbird stopped working today. It won't download any messages, it wants me to enter a new password. I have the correct password and can log into my mail on wowway.net I did not touch anything, it just stopped working. All the POP settings are correct per wowway website. Should I uninstall it? It seems a new update was released on 11-12. When I opened it on 11-13, it didn't work. Please help. redacted@gmail.com

I have 3 different email accounts on Thunderbird. All was working perfectly yesterday. Today, none of the email accounts can connect with their respective email servers. (Two are Verizon/AOL and one is gmail.) I have tried various fixes with no joy. At this point I give up. My email is very important in my life (I'm 81 years old) and Thunderbird is simply way too hard to fix with non-existent help. (Your Community help line is a joke unless you have technical knowledge. Nothing ever quite fits the problem so it is no help at all.)

One day my beloved T.Bird got wacked. I have 4 accounts. Only one was visible and all under folders incl spam and trash was gone. I found the other 4 accounts under "accounts". But that did not help me. I could not get them up and work. So I do hope you can help me to restore the bird to work on condition.

Please: Do answer me at the only working mail which is redacted@karma.dk. I use my telephone now, but that is not optimal. Cheers: Claus Pedersen from Denmark.

Thuderbird is failing the intial install and then does not allow me to import my previous thinderbird profile since it does not show all files in a directory of from another Mac M1 on my network where it is still functioning. See the following as some processing a failing in this listing.

If more information is needed then let me know otherwise I see if I have and the previous release and try to restore from there. Basic information is not in the system such mail accounts , message filter rules which I use heavily. I had four active mail accounts anw on two were found but was forcing me to logon into two of the four accounts.

Need a fix!!!!!

Downloaded Thunderbird in Kubuntu. Transferred my yahoo mail account, can see and open the emails in the local folders but can not move email to any folder but trash out of inbox

We cannot loggon to our thunderbird e-mail account. we have used this for several years with no problems, now they want a password I've tried two that I thought were the right ones but no success, I am stuck and need help. Thank you.

I am having problems being able to send emails if Surfshark is activated. Been working with Surfshark for the last week or so. So far no luck. FYI: I do run Bidefender, AVG TuneUp and CCleaner. I have added an exception to Bitdefender. No changes to not being able to receive or send emails. None of my settings have changed in Surfshark or Thunderbird. Using Open VPN protocol and am getting a message all the time about Thunderbird trying to connect with connecting to imap.comcast.net and it just stalls there. If it does get sent, it does not get saved to the sent folder.

Also, at times when I close Thunderbird I have to go into task manager and delete before I can open it up again.  Any ideas?  Thanks

Installed Thunderbird 145 (64 bit) on my windows laptop and didn't add any add-ons or theme! I moved from outlook to thunderbird hoping to have a better experience. Aside connecting thunderbird to the mail server, I also converted my former .pst email file into thunderbird file so that I can have access to my former emails. I have problems with some emails that keep cropping in my mail box even though I delete them!! I keep removing them and / Or putting them in the trash but they keep coming!!!

My emails go out and in successively but this problem is giving me a headache and increasing the trash folder. Troubleshooting mode seems to fix it, but as soon as I restart thunderbird, those recurring emails come back!! pls advise what to do next??

Thank you.

Dear, I use my personnal account to contact you for a problem on my Professional Thunderbird mail box. I am using for my job a Professional Thunderbird mail box Version 140.4.0esr (64-bit). Before, I had to enter only the mail adress with password. Now, a double authentification with Microsoft Authenticator is required; but no mobile terminal is dedicated to this mail box so I cannot have access anymore. Do you have a solution ?

Thank you,

Best regards
